Schnees are obviously good for wet conditions (and a very reputable brand) but I need better support than that. The idea of those being called "the best elk hunting boot in the world" seems odd to me. They're just pac style boots. I would turn my ankle in those boots in the mountains...not to mention the lack of foot support. I can appreciate pac boots but at the end of a day, my feet are always pretty tired after wearing them.

Boots are obviously a very individual thing. Find what works for you and get outside more often!
